“You did not wake up today to be mediocre.” 

“Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.” A.W. Tozer

Stop tolerating average, stop accepting mediocrity. You're not born just to be normal.

“Stay focused on your destination, even if your path may seem stormy today.” - Bill Cox 

“You’re here for a reason. If you’re comparing yourself to someone else, you’re off your own path. Focus on your own path.”

Sometimes what is meant to be doesn’t necessarily what you wanna experience… "Sometimes the best thing you can do is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess. Just breath, and have faith that everything will work out for the best."

When you feel like giving up, remember that you not only do it for you, but also for those who can’t do it for themselves because they’re not lucky enough to have privileges like yourself.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover” - Mark Twain

“Always remember that your present situation is not your final destination. The best is yet to come.”

You’re going to look back at this and be so glad you kept going. Keep it up, you're almost there!

You can almost screw everything up and things still somehow work out in the end. If you knew in advance that you’ll succeed eventually, what are you still afraid of anymore? Stop playing it safe and start living the life of your dreams.

“Living with fear stops us taking risks, and if you don’t go out on the branch, you’re never going to get the best fruit.” - Sarah Parish

Mistakes are acceptable, screwing things up is acceptable, failure is acceptable, but continuing to live in fear without taking action is unacceptable.

You do nothing good by living an average life, by settling for less than what you want just because you don’t have the courage to go for dreams. Live boldly and courageously doesn’t necessarily guarantee success, but it will definitely please you and one day when you look back at the things you have done, you’ll be so proud of yourself.

“Expectation is the root of all heartache.” William Shakespeare

“Expectation is the mother of all frustration.” Antonio Banderas

Let go of expectations and welcome life as it is.
